Raspberry Cheesecake Slice

It's already August and soon summer will come to an end. I try to enjoy all the locally grown fruits as much as possible. Each trip to the produce place I will haul back way too much fruit for the 2 of us but everything just look so fresh and good and I just can't resist it. We like to eat them fresh but fruit like berries doesn’t last too long. They will dries up pretty fast in the fridge so I tried to put it in dessert and baking. For this cheesecake you can use any type of summer fruits like blueberries, strawberries, cherries, blackberries etc.

1. Prepare and greased an 8” x 8” square baking pan. Line it with parchment paper or aluminum foil and left some overhang on the side (for easy removal later on) Pre-heat the oven to 325 degree F.
2. Combined Oreo cookies crumbs with melted butter. Press into the base of the baking pan and let it chill in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
3. Beat cream cheese, sugar, flour, lemon zest and juice until smooth. Beat in eggs, one at a time and lastly add in the sour cream. Mix until well combined.
4. Pour mixture into prepared base, sprinkle the raspberries and bake the cheesecake for an hour. Allow it to cool complete before slicing. Serve chilled.

Wow .... so lovely and delicious raspberry slice cake. I am sure it is as nice as the blueberry cheesecake bars which I have tried but raspberry is so expensive in Singapore. This looks good to give a pass. Am book-marking this.Thanks for sharing.

Gertrude...I wish fresh fruits like raspberry, strawberry, and blueberries were cheap here :( so expensive over here that I only buy them when they are on offer :) like eating gold. These berries are great combo for cheesecake. Thanks for the recipe :)
